Chapter 20: Meng Tian's Unbelief (II)
Ying Zheng snorted coldly, and then took Meng Tian and Li Si to Qin An's residence.
On the way, Ying Zheng repeatedly reminded Meng Tian not to reveal their identities and not to let Qin An know about Daqin here.
For the first emperor's order, Meng Tian will not hesitate to carry it out, even if he still doesn't believe Qin An very much, although Qin An showed Meng Tian his mobile phone, he thought it was just a trick or witchcraft.
The three of them came to Qin An's courtyard and saw a few dishes on the table in the courtyard, but they didn't see Qin An.
"Lis, call sir." Ying Zheng said.
"No." Li Si responded, and then shouted loudly: "Sir, are you in the house?" ”
"In, in, in. You guys sit outside for a while, I still have a lamb soup that is not good. Qin An's voice came from the house.
Ying Zheng smiled: "Let's go over and sit, Meng Tian, this is a table and chair invented by Mr., and it is quite comfortable to sit down." ”
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen smelled this fragrance and unconsciously spoke with relish." Li Si spoke.
"I also smelled it, it seemed to be the aroma of the dishes on the table, which was completely different from the aroma of the dishes made in the imperial dining room.
The smell of this fragrance made my stomach hungry. Ying Zheng touched his stomach and said with interest.
Meng Tian said: "Because the gentleman is far away from the cook, this gentleman actually cooks by himself, and Weichen really doesn't understand what attracts His Majesty to him." ”
"You'll find out later." Ying Zheng said.
Then he walked to the square table and sat down, Li Si followed behind Ying Zheng, and did not dare to sit without Ying Zheng's order.
Meng Tian is the same, just standing behind Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng looked at the steaming dishes on the table and said, "I'll try it first." ”
Then I picked up the chopsticks on the table and tasted it, and immediately the deliciousness filled the whole taste buds.
"Hmm. It's delicious, it's delicious. Li Si, Meng Tian, you also give it a try, these dishes are really delicious, completely different from what you have eaten before. ”
"No."
Li Si and Meng Tian had already looked forward to a few dishes on the table when they saw Ying Zheng's performance, and now that they had received Ying Zheng's order, they directly picked up the chopsticks on the table and ate them.
After the two tasted it, they gave it a thumbs up.
It's really delicious, compared to the few dishes on the table, the food I used to eat was similar to pig food.
"It's coming, it's coming." Qin An's voice sounded from inside the house.
His figure also walked out of the house, holding an urn in his hand, it wasn't that Qin An didn't want to take a big bowl out, there was really no big bowl available.
"It smells so good." Ying Zheng and the three said at the same time.
Qin An put the urn on the table and said, "Can it not be fragrant, this is mutton soup, I know that a sheep has just been slaughtered in the village."
So he cheekily asked for some mutton, mutton bones and offal from the villagers, and stewed them together.
Although drinking mutton soup in summer can make people angry, it is still good to eat it occasionally. ”
Qin An said as he served a bowl of mutton soup to the three of Yingzheng, with some mutton and offal in it.
Meng Tian said, "Sir, can you eat this haggis?" We're all throwing it away. ”
"Throw it away?" Qin An was taken aback, "You guys are really wasteful. Whether it's haggis, beef offal, or even chicken, duck, dog, and pig offal, I'm a delicacy, and it's a waste to throw it away.
If you don't want it, then give it to me, I can use it to make lo-mei, and I can make a lot of money by selling it. Qin An said.
Ying Zheng said: "Sir, are people outside of these things willing to eat? ”
"Not only is it willing, but it also costs a lot of money to eat."
"Then I'm going to have a taste." Ying Zheng picked up the bowl and ate it.
"I'll taste it too." Li Si followed and ate.
When Meng Tian was in a dilemma, he finally ate it ruthlessly.
Ying Zheng drank the mutton soup in the bowl in one go, and also ate the mutton and haggis in the bowl.
"It's delicious." Ying Zheng was full of praise.
Li Si also put down the bowl and said, "I didn't expect the soup made from this haggis to be so delicious." ”
"That's it." Meng Tian put down the bowl and said.
Qin An smiled: "It's really not good, one is that the time is not enough to boil, and the other is that the seasoning is insufficient, and the mutton soup is not made to the ultimate delicious, next time I will get some seasoning and give you a taste."
However, Lao Meng, you are too inferior to your ancestor General Meng Tian.
Just now I saw that you hesitated when you drank mutton soup, if you were an ancestor, you would definitely drink it in one breath very heroically. ”
Ying Zheng said: "Mr. still knows Lao Meng's ancestors? ”
"Can you not understand?" Qin An said, "Meng Tian won the trust of the First Emperor and was sent by the First Emperor to attack the Xiongnu in the north. Recovering the land of Henan, shocking the Huns, known as 'China's first warrior'.
It's a pity that Fusu was with Meng Tian after he was demoted.
At that time, when Fusu was deceived by a fake edict, Meng Tian reminded Fusu that the edict might be fake, and asked Fusu to go to Xianyang to confront the First Emperor.
It's a pity that Fusu didn't stop, and he still chose to commit suicide. ”
"It's stupid." Ying Zheng scolded angrily, "Since someone has already reminded you, won't Fusu think about going to Xianyang first?" It was stupid enough to commit suicide. ”
Qin An said: "This is not the fault of the First Emperor, it is the so-called fault of not raising a godfather." The reason why Fusu had such a move was completely caused by the First Emperor. ”
"Bold." Meng Tian couldn't bear it anymore, "The First Emperor is what you can say at will. ”
"Shut up." Ying Zheng immediately scolded.
Qin An was frightened by Ying Zheng and Meng Tian's words, what happened to this old Meng? It's already over two thousand, why are you still so excited?
Oh, I see, they must think that they are still in the Qin Dynasty, they can only say that they don't touch the outside here, and they are too backward.
Li Si didn't know Qin An's thoughts, and when he saw him, he was stunned, and immediately said: "Sir, don't be nervous, this old Meng has always regarded the First Emperor as the sky, and he will be very angry when he hears others say bad things about the First Emperor." ”
Qin An came back to his senses and said, "It's okay, I'm just a little heartbroken, there is too little contact with the outside world here, and I don't know anything about the outside world."
Lao Meng, I know that you are a descendant of Meng Tian, and you must have always taken it as your responsibility to protect Great Qin and the First Emperor.
However, both Great Qin and the First Emperor have been extinct for more than 2,000 years. In today's society, the people are the masters of the country, and after the national and international standards are integrated, the economy, science and technology, and people's lives have been qualitatively improved.
I said you should get out of the village and out into the outside world, it's definitely worth it. ”
"What? What did you say? Meng Tian was taken aback and looked at Ying Zheng and Li Si incredulously.
Ying Zheng nodded and said, "That's it, you now know why Mr. is Mr." ”
